Lime Prime... DANNY?!


So, got my order of Lime Prime in today. Been testing it. In all honesty, I can't get good results out of it. I have tried green and blue uber pads on speed 5 with very little results. It removes the micro marring, but leaves a haze still. M205/Green seems to be finishing down better.

Makes me wonder if I should just do m205/green followed by Lime Prime/Blue. Kinda messed up the purpose of my buying it however...

DANNY! What ya think?

Justin hey man I wonder why that happening to you whats your technique for using it? I suggest you try it at speed six since most guys I know use it via rotary and start the RPMS at 600 then move up to 900 then peak at 1500, then back down to 900 and then 600 with a green, orange, or yellow uber. For the first 2 or 3 passes use it with heavy pressure then do 1 pass with medium pressure then 2 passes with light pressure and slow arm movement basically try to work it until it gets oily and clear (similar to how 85RD looks when broken down). Blue is really not going to give you much cut with it at all, I would only use it on a blue or black if I wanted to simply brighten the finish and not really correct. Or if I used a medium grade polish then was stepping down to this to finish with on a multistage correction. If it still doesnt work for you via PC and you dont want it or autogeek wont return it, I might be willing to take it off your hands. But I am almost sure if you bump up the speed and polish with it like I said it will yield the results you want

Well, heres the thing...

I tried it at speed 6 with a black pad. It left some major buffer trails each time I used it. However, I could get it to work on the hood just fine when I had done M105/M205 already. Hood had some nasty scratches caused by the cats that M205 after 3 passes still did not get off. Took two passes with M105/Green. I need to get some higher cutting pads...

I went ahead and did the whole car with 85rd. I don't know what the issue is.

I did not touch the front bumper because I have HIDs coming in. I will try it on there again before I hang it up. AG will not take it back since I have used it. If it does not work on the front bumper either, I will gladly sell it or trade it with you.

Wow thats really weird man. I still think if you keep it on speed 6 and use a green, orange or yellow pad and polish the way I suggested it will work for you man, give it a try again on a green on the front bumper but the way I suggested If its still then doesnt work for you post up a pic and let me know how of it that you used and what you want for it. Or if you want to trade for some other compounds or polishes these are the ones I have, I also have several other products that I have if your interested in certain ones let me know.

Compounds & Polishes I have that and that I am willing to trade portions of them:

Mothers Professional Heavy Duty Compound 81232
Mothers Professional Rubbing Compound 81132
Mothers Professional Machine Glaze 82332
Mothers Professional Foam Pad Polish 83432
Optimum Polish II
Optimum Compound
Autoglym Super Resin Polish
3M Rubbing Compound
Meguiars M205

We shall see. Not sure what I am doing wrong... from some research I can see that Lime Prime is very picky about pads and even paint type.
